The Challenge is Real. The Stakes Are Higher.
The FIFA World Cup in 2026 will bring unprecedented security challenges to the Bay Area. With Levi's Stadium hosting multiple matches, practice facilities across Santa Clara County, and millions of visitors converging on the region, drone threats pose a critical risk to public safety.
Stadium & Venue Security
Levi's Stadium and surrounding practice facilities require 24/7 airspace monitoring during FIFA events. Unauthorized drones can disrupt games, conduct surveillance, or cause critical situations.
Critical Infrastructure Protection
San Francisco International Airport, BART stations, and regional transportation hubs will see record traffic. Drone incursions could cause cascading disruptions across the Bay Area.
Protecting Teams, Fans, and Communities
Fan zones, team hotels, and public viewing areas create soft targets. Law enforcement needs real-time drone detection to respond before incidents occur.
Federal Grant Funding Available
The Department of Homeland Security has allocated significant funding through the Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) specifically for FIFA World Cup security. Applications are due February 28, 2026.
Built to Handle Bay Area Weather
SkySafe is built to detect drones in even the worst weather conditions, withstanding rain, wind, fog, and even hail.
